I have no friends, no money, no future, and no help.

You're being overly dramatic but I'm guessing you believe all that is true. I work at a halfway house and one of the things we do is help clients develop a support group (family, friends, coworkers, etc).

Wanna know what the easy/fastest way is to make a friend? It's not a bar or a church. It's volunteering. Volunteer somewhere where there will be other volunteers. You won't be coworkers, just two people with kind hearts and at least one thing in common (the place you volunteer).

Volunteering also helps you feel better about yourself because you are helping others even when you yourself feel you are the one needing help. We all need help sometimes.

Volunteering is also HUGE on a resume even if it's the only thing on that resume. If you don't have a job or can't find one then volunteer somewhere. You'll be busy, have a reference for a future job, feel better about yourself and life, and most of all...meet new people.

No joke. If you're hurting, find someone who is hurting more and help them.
